Minimizing your pain, you fought a brave battle, Cheryl; always so humble of heart. I love you and miss you, dear friend.
I keep waiting for the phone to ring to hear your sweet voice - the voice that always spoke so lovingly of her family. I miss you sharing stories and updates of your beloved granddaughter Neile; your precious "Boo-boo" - your pride and joy to whom you unselfishly and lovingly dedicated your days. My heart aches for her losing her Grandma so young.
I always admired your love of animals and how attentive you were to them; treating each individual pet in such a special way unique to the attention required of their species.
I love and admired how attentive you were in conversation; always allowing another to have their say - carefully listening and considering without judgement, affirming people's views and opinions as important as another's.
Thank you Cheryl, for your love and friendship, and mostly for the happiness and joy you brought to all who knew you.

Aunt Cheryl, It's sad to know you're gone ... gone beyond our reach, leaving this mortal world behind. But you have left us memories that no one can take away, memories that will bring forth a smile and conquer the painful tears. The short time we had with you last week was very memorable to us. Know that we love you and will always be missed. Love, Jojo, Caity, Chloe & Joe
